Gerhard Richter: the Day Is Long MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY Gerhard Richter: The Day Is Long By Robert Storr (January 1, 2002) Born in Dresden in 1932, Gerhard Richter came of age after World War II. In the villages of Reichenau and Waltersdorf, where his father taught school before being mobilized, Richter had a provincial childhood that mixed Tom Sawyer escapades in the forests of Saxony with compulsory membership in the Hitler Youth and a catch-as-catch-can education. His mother, the daughter of a gifted pianist and a bookseller prior to her marriage, read Goethe, Nietzsche and the classics of German literature, listened avidly to the great 18th- and 19th-century composers and encouraged her son's interest in drawing and painting. Upon leaving grammar school at age 15, Richter found a series of temporary jobs-assisting a local photographer, decorating banners for the East German Communist regime and painting sets for a theater in the small city of Zitau. In 1952, after failing at his first try, he was admitted to the Art Academy in Dresden. During his five-year stint at the academy, Richter received a thorough but traditional studio training under the tutelage of Heinz Lothmar, a former Surrealist and dedicated Communist who supervised the mural painting department. Paradoxically, this department permitted students the greatest freedom to experiment formally, since mural painting was assumed to be a "decorative" form by otherwise strict enforcers of the prevailing Socialist Realist esthetic. Upon graduation, Richter executed several mural commissions that were well received by officials and the public. In addition to attracting a degree of recognition and assuring him a steady income, this success allowed Richter the opportunity to travel to the West. On the second of these trips, in 1959, he visited Documenta II in Kassel. The exhibition was one of a series of surveys of international modern and contemporary art intended to fill in the blanks in German cultural history created by the 12-year blackout of the Third Reich and to present vanguard painting and sculpture condemned by authorities in the Communist Bloc. There, for the first time, Richter saw many artists about whom he had heard and many altogether unknown to him. Among those who impressed him most were Lucio Fontana and Jackson Pollock. Two years later, shortly before the Berlin Wall was erected, Richter abandoned his secure and "promising" future in Dresden and slipped over the border to West Berlin. On the advice of a friend who had made the move ahead of him, Richter enrolled in the Academy of Art in Düsseldorf. That same year, Joseph Beuys was named professor of monumental sculpture at the academy, and though Richter always kept his distance from him, Beuys was henceforth an increasingly important presence in the burgeoning art worlds of Düsseldorf and Cologne. When Richter himself was appointed a professor at the academy in 1971, Beuys became a faculty colleague. Richter's own professor in Düsseldorf was the informel or gesture painter Karl Otto Götz, and for a brief period the younger artist worked in a physically aggressive manner influenced by Alberto Burri, Jean 24 WEST 57 T H STREET NEW YORK, NY 10019 TEL: 212 977 7160 FAX: 212 581 5187 MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY Dubuffet, Jean Fautrier and Fontana, in effect starting over again and unlearning all that he had been taught at the conservative Dresden Academy. Almost as soon as he arrived in Düsseldorf, Richter fell in with three other students, Sigmar Polke and Blinky Palermo, also refugees from the East, and Konrad Lueg, who later changed his name and became the art dealer Konrad Fischer. With Lueg and Polke, Richter shared an active interest in Pop art, which was then brand new and which they did not consider an exclusively American or British domain. Indeed, when Richter and Lueg traveled to Paris in 1963, they introduced themselves to the dealer Ileana Sonnabend as German Pop artists. Later that year, Richter and Lueg mounted two exhibitions/ demonstrations of their own work, the first one also involving the collaboration of Polke and another friend, Manfred Kuttner. These were the first occasions on which Richter showed his photo-based paintings. The exhibitions inaugurated a singularly protean, 40-year career which was to encompass many surprising changes in his work. The following interview was recorded Oct. 17 and 18, 1996. Overall, the exchange was more conversational than interrogative and was punctuated by more laughter than is mentioned here, for by nature Richter is as playful in his speech as he is precise. He was teasing in his answers to some questions, at times startlingly blunt in response to others. Assisting at the interview was Isabelle Moffat, who acted as skillful interpreter when the conversation shifted into German and who transcribed and, where necessary, translated the audiotape. The interview covered many topics; the parts published here-with the editorial contribution of Sue Taylor-deal with aspects of Richter's early years that are not generally known, and with issues raised by his recent work. -R.S. Robert Storr: How it is that you first began to make paintings? Gerhard Richter: When I was a child, at 15 or 16, I made watercolors, landscapes and self-portraits. I remember doing a watercolor of a group of people dancing. It was quite a nice one. RS: Why does it stand out in your memory? GR: Because I was so negative when I was young. We had moved to a new village, and automatically I was an outsider. I couldn't speak the dialect and so on. I was at a club, watching the others dance, and I was jealous and bitter and annoyed. So in the watercolor all this anger is included, at 16. It was the same with the poems I was writing-very romantic, but bitter and nihilistic, like Nietzsche and Hermann Hesse. RS: Did your family support your making art, or was it all on the side-private? GR: On the side. Maybe my mother approved. She was a bit crazy, so she thought this boy might be a genius. RS: So she encouraged you? GR: She did nothing against my efforts. RS: That's a lot. GR: That's a lot. That's true. 24 WEST 57 T H STREET NEW YORK, NY 10019 TEL: 212 977 7160 FAX: 212 581 5187 MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY RS: And when did you decide to pursue this activity professionally? GR: When I was 17. I had to find a job at some point; that's when I did poster painting, lettering onbanners-"Der Sozialismus lebt." That's a strange sentence, "Socialism lives." RS: In your case, it was also a matter of "Socialism is a living." GR: Good! And then I worked in theater, painting scenery, for half a year. It was a city theater, in Zitau, a small town about 100 kilometers from Dresden, where I lived in a dormitory for apprentices. RS: And so it was coming out of those experiences-your poems and watercolors and your work in theater-that you decided to go to the academy? GR: Yes. From the age of maybe 16 I had the feeling it would be right for me. RS: And what kind of a future did you imagine as an artist, at that point? GR: I had no idea. I just wanted to paint, to make pictures. RS: Did you think you were going to be a painter for public occasions or for private collectors of paintings? GR: A painter like all the others, like Lovis Corinth and Raphael and so on. A famous painter. [Laughter] RS: But didn't you do a mural commission just after graduation from the academy? GR: When I left the academy, at the end, yes, I painted a large mural on the theme of health and happiness in a Socialist paradise. RS: But you didn't see yourself continuing to make paintings of that sort, big public paintings? GR: Maybe for some short moment I thought this could be a future for me, making big paintings, public paintings. RS: I know from Ilya Kabakov, Eric Bulatov and other artists from the former Soviet Union that in the Eastern Bloc one could have a job as an official artist, a book designer, for example, and then be an unofficial artist in private. I wonder if you envisioned this kind of a double life, or if you expected just to paint pictures? GR: I never really thought that I would have a job in this field, painting murals or as a public artist; I did not think it was anything serious. I was most afraid of being placed in a company. That was the usual treatment. RS: What kind of role models were there then for being an independent artist? Who could one look to as an example of somebody who had shown that it was possible? 24 WEST 57 T H STREET NEW YORK, NY 10019 TEL: 212 977 7160 FAX: 212 581 5187 MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY GR: No one. RS: So it was a question of something that had to be invented. GR: Yes. There certainly was an underground, but I did not like it. Then there were freelance, self- employed artists. But there were no good painters among them. The independent artists, some of them, were overproud of their independence; they made a cult out of their status. I always had a bad feeling about that, their pride, their self-importance. RS: What kind of art could one see at that time in East Germany? GR: We looked very seriously at group exhibitions. At least twice a year there was a big show of work from artists' societies.

  • Jerusalem As Trauerarbeit on Two Paintings by Anselm Kiefer and Gerhard Richter
    Jerusalem as Trauerarbeit 59 Chapter 3 Jerusalem as Trauerarbeit On Two Paintings by Anselm Kiefer and Gerhard Richter Wouter Weijers In 1986, Anselm Kiefer produced a painting he entitled Jerusalem (Fig. 3.1). It is a large and heavy work measuring approximately thirteen by eighteen feet. When viewed up close, the surface is reminiscent of abstract Matter Painting. Liquid lead was applied, left to solidify and then scraped off again in places, ripping the work’s skin. When the work is viewed from a distance, a high hori- zon with a golden glow shining over its centre appears, which, partly due to the title, could be interpreted as a reference to a heavenly Jerusalem. Two metal skis are attached to the surface, which, as Fremdkörper, do not enter into any kind of structural or visual relationship with the painting Eleven years later, Gerhard Richter painted a much smaller work that, although it was also given the title Jerusalem, was of a very different order (Fig. 3.2). The painting shows us a view of a sun-lit city. But again Jerusalem is hardly recognizable because Richter has let the city dissolve in a hazy atmo- sphere, which is, in effect, the result of a painting technique using a fine, dry brush in paint that has not yet completely dried. It is the title that identifies the city. Insiders might be able to recognize the western wall of the old city in the lit-up strip just below the horizon, but otherwise all of the buildings have dis- appeared in the haze.

  • Isa Genzken. Window
    Press Release Isa Genzken. Window Hauser & Wirth London Reopening by appointment on 15 June 2020 Reopening to the public from 1 July - 1 August 2020 Hauser & Wirth London is delighted to reopen ‘Window’, an exhibition by Isa Genzken featuring a new and unseen body of work. Genzken’s immersive environment expands on the themes of travel, through elements of an aircraft cabin, and the window as a juncture between interior and exterior spaces. In this respect, it reveals the artist’s interest in architecture and light, a topic of enduring resonance in her work as seen in the landmark exhibition in Chicago in 1992, ‘Everybody Needs at Least One Window’. Isa Genzken has long been considered one of Germany’s most important and influential contemporary artists. Since the 1970s, Genzken’s multifaceted practice has encompassed sculpture, photography, found-object installation, film, drawing and painting. Her work borrows from the aesthetics of Minimalism, punk culture and assemblage art to confront the conditions of human experience in contemporary society and the uneasy social climate of capitalism. Throughout her fifty-year career, Genzken’s primary focus has always been sculpture, and although her style has remained varied, her work has maintained a striking common thread and internal truth to both her vision and to the works of art themselves. The exhibition begins with ‘Saal (Room)’ made in 1989, a concrete sculpture which rises from its stark metal stand like a Brutalist architectural model. Oscillating between construction and destruction, it exists somewhere between fragmented ruin and autonomous space, appraising the lasting influence of modern architecture and its social and cultural implications, while paving the way for the ‘Fenster’ series that would follow.

  • Martin Kippenberger, 43, Artist of Irreverence and Mixed Styles
    THE NEW YORK TIMES OBITUARIES 11.3.1997 Martin Kippenberger, 43, Artist Of Irreverence and Mixed Styles By ROBERTA SMITH Martin Kippenberger, widely regarded as one of the most talented German artists of his generation, died on Friday at the University of Vienna Hospital. He was 43 and had moved to Vienna last year. The cause was cancer, said Gisela Capitain, his agent and dealer. A dandyish, articulate, prodigiously prolific artist who loved controversy and confrontation and combined irreverence with a passion for art, Mr. Kippenberger worked at various points in performance art, painting, drawing, sculpture, installation art and photography and also made several musical recordings. He was a ringleader of a younger generation of „bad boy" German artists born mostly after World War II that emerged in the wake of the German Neo-Expressionists. His fellow travelers included Markus and Albert Oehlen, Georg Herold and Günter Förg, and they sometimes seemed almost as well known for their carousing as for their work. Mr. Kippenberger once made a sculpture titled „Street Lamp for Drunks"; its post curved woozily back and forth. In New York City, Mr, Kippenberger was known for a well-received show of improvisational sculptures at Metro Pictures in SoHo in 1987. The pieces incorporated an extensive range of found objects and materials and sundry conceptual premises. He considered no style or artist's work off-limits for appropriation, though his paintings most frequently resembled heavily worked, seemingly defaced fusions of Dadaism, Pop and Neo-Expressionism and often poked fun at the art world or himself. His penchant for mixing media, styles and processes influenced younger artists on both sides of the Atlantic.

  • Martin Kippenberger Self-Portraits at Christie's London on October 11 & 12
    PRESS RELEASE | LONDON | 19 SEPTEMBER 2012 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AN IMPORTANT COLLECTION OF MARTIN KIPPENBERGER SELF-PORTRAITS AT CHRISTIE'S LONDON ON OCTOBER 11 & 12 Martin Kippenberger (1953-1997) Untitled (from the series Hand-Painted Pictures) oil on canvas / 71 x 59in. (180.4 x 149.8cm.) / Painted in 1992 Estimate: £2,500,000-3,500,000 London - In an unprecedented event, Christie’s Post-War & Contemporary Art Department will offer on October 11 and 12 an important collection of Martin Kippenberger (1953-1997) self-portraits, including thirteen works on paper and the seminal oil on canvas, Ohne Titel (Untitled), from the series Hand-Painted Pictures) (1992) (estimate: £2,500,000-3,500,000; illustrated above). The latter was previously exhibited in the major retrospectives of the artist’s work held at the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris in 1993, Tate Modern, London in 2006, MoCA, Los Angeles and MoMA, New York in 2009. Assembled over the course of a twenty- five year friendship, this collection belongs to someone who knew the artist so well, that these works offer a unique insight and portrait of the artist. Charismatic and irreverent, Martin Kippenberger is remembered for his conceptual and expressive transformation of the 1980s and 1990s art scene. Francis Outred, Christie's Head of Post-War & Contemporary Art, Europe: “Martin Kippenberger's revolutionary influence on contemporary art practice continues to grow by the day. At the source of his wild approach to and disdain for the preconceived notions of the artist's role in society was his own self. His self- portraits lie at the heart of his oeuvre and I have never seen such an outstanding collection, which so accurately documents his development from the 1970s to his tragic, early death in 1997.

The research asks what is the interstitial space between image and text? It is this junction, potent in contemporary practice, that I argue underpins my artistic research. This is both an artistic and scholarly investigation, and it engages with my search for the origin of (cultural) memory as manifested in works from a range of media: architecture, installation, scenography, drawing, and time-based media. The study is distinctive in its exploration of a contemporary global trajectory as it traces geographic, psychological and cultural landscapes as it revisits central works created in Europe, Australia, Asia and New Zealand since 1992.

Ermutigung (Zachęta. Encouragement). En route I see large paper-drop pictures hanging in niches that must originally have been intended for paintings. These close-ups of sheets of curling, curving photographic paper with shimmering and gleaming polychrome surfaces are unframed, held in position by the foldback clips that Tillmans uses to present his works on paper. With the three-dimensionality of the images and the three-dimensionality of the physical objects, the paper-drop pictures perform a dance of gravity, materials, reflections and shadows. They show what they are, even if not completely. For the difference between the materiality of the photographic paper ‘in’ the pictures and the archival sheets exhibited here (207 × 138 centi- metres) that have absorbed the ink-jet prints, prevents any over-hasty identification.
